👀 Knowing how it ends

Other: I read the audiobook and the narrators were perfectly cast! This book was a fast read that was definitely emotional in the sense that seeing characters, especially young characters, as they know they're dying is emotional, but it didn't have the time to fully develop those feelings, and it honestly didn't really need to fully develop that aspect of it. This is a shockingly lighthearted book and deserves a read, but I found myself wanting to know more about the world around the plot instead of having such an intense focus on the characters.
